HIP HOUSE POST

YES WE ARE BACK. INTERVIEW BLITZ COMING MAD SOON. IN THE MEANTIME ENJOY SOME WISDOM ON THE CLUB MUSIC I HAVE BEEN BUMPIN' MOST THIS YEAR: HIP HOUSE.



FACT MAGAZINE'S GREAT LIST OF 20 GREAT HIP HOUSE SONGS. THIS IS AN AMAZING PRIMER

ZONE STYX TRAVELCARD'S LITERATE AND INSIGHTFUL APOLOGY/DISSECTION OF HIP HOUSE

AND HECK HERE ARE SOME TRACKS



SO I ALREADY FEATURED KEVIN SAUNDERSON'S RAP ALIAS REESE ON THIS BLOG. I WILL FEATURE HIM AGAIN. THIS IS SIMPLE AND CLASSIC HIP HOUSE, SLEEK AND FUNKY.

REESE - YOU'RE MINE (HIP HOUSE MIX)



SEDUCTION RELEASED A FORGETTABLE 80s DANCE TRACK, "TWO TO MAKE IT RIGHT", THAT MADE THE ROUNDS ON A FEW COMPS. HOWEVER, THE REMASTERED VERSION WITH NEW HIP HOUSE VOCALS MAKES IT PRETTY FIREY. THE 'LOVE BREAK' NEAR THE 2:40 MARK MAKES ME GRIN EVERY TIME I HEAR IT.

THE MAGNIFICENT DJ AYRES RELEASED A GREAT HIP HOUSE MIX BACK IN 2004 THAT PULLS A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT SOUNDS UNDER THE HIP HOUSE UMBRELLA; AMONG THEM TRACKS BY QUEEN LATIFAH, MISSY, JOE BUDDEN, AND EVEN GHOSTFACE. HOWEVER, HIS MASHUP OF UNDERAPPRECIATED RAH DIGGA BANGER "PARTY AND BULLSHIT" WITH THE TYREE CLASSIC "ACID CRASH" STANDS OUT. YES, IT'S A MIXTAPE RIP.
